November 23 they tryOr it was just a coincidence. Anyway, it was quite entertaining.
Oh well. I think the prof didnt even notice it. ~*YN*~ November 22 I probably had enough timeIf I were a robot I think. But nooo I had to be a human who's prone to falling sick, having cramps and bouts of day dreaming tendency. Argh. This totally suck. I'm running out of coffee >.< Need to concentrate!!!! ~*YN*~ November 19 nightmares So much for buying stuff online. Seriously, this is the second time that the Charlotte Russe spree got cancelled and it was organised by the same person!!! I'm so not fated to get anything from there. There goes my christmas/ birthday plans. Argh. I'm not so thrilled to be growing up. Havnt been in a while. Well, you get to do cool things like drive (traffic police have backlog. I'm not getting my license till the end of this month), stay out late ( meteor shower was more like meteor drizzle, but saw a fire ball though), go clubbing( havnt done that in quite a while. need to let off some steam), lord over other people (little cousins to be exact, they just look so cute when squirming XD). But... things get old. I had to sleep for like 14 hours to make up for 6 hours sleep debt and have sore neck for the whole day feeling like shit cos I said something that I wish I can take back :( ~*YN*~ November 17 ROFLI have no idea if I can post this here. Read this past year exam question from GEK 1006 it goes something like: David was queuing in the cafeteria and an attractive person joined the line behind him. He worked up the courage to introduce himself. "Hi I'm David." "Nice to meet you. I'm Alice." Both feel electrified and as they chatted about classes and campus life. OMG... Electrified?! I kid you not. the last line is straight from the paper. ~*YN*~ November 16 finally!!!Spent the afternoon on ecology. Who says plants are boring? apparently they can shift upward in respond to higher temperature.
Then looked at photos of flies, beetles and their larvae, which totally freaked my mom out XD
And then, HALLELUJAH!
  OMG!!! Like, about time! Whee~~~~
Been waiting for this since J2. That's like 3 years ago.
I'm so going to run out and buy the latest manga!!
meanwhile anyone interested can read it here
~*YN*~ November 15 I've been studyingAt first I thought the gek I was taking was completely useless but then I read the textbook and found that it was quite interesting. Alright. Now I feel that I've been giving other ppl too much power in their relationship with me. I care abt ppl, most of the time a lot more than they care about me or so it seems. Other than my mom and madame I really think that no one else will ever drop anything to bail me out of something. There's just so many times that I've been left in the lurch. I guess I'd just have to stop expecting other ppl to respond the way that I do. Well, applying and knowing are totally different things, so there. ~*YN*~ November 14 run like the wind and fly!Amidst of all that angst and god knows wat I was feeling this sem, it really does seem that I've missed out on a lot. Why is it reading week alr?? OMG so fast. I kinda think its because I only went to school like 3 to 4 days each week >.< Nevertheless now's the time to do some damage control. ~*YN~ November 11 Little jugs of joy I think yesterday was the first time I saw a pitcher plant. Apparently they are considered rare in Singapore.... Since it's the first time I've seen them, I guess they are. Only 3 species can be found in Singapore (if I'm not wrong...) So, for my biweekly ultra vigorous work out regime a.k.a ecology field trip, we went to Kent Ridge park!  But first we had to climb flights of this totally dangerous steps from hell. Seriously. The people who designed this should be made to climb it and be enlightened on the dangers of their design. Nepenthes gracilis slender pitcher plant Lowers pitcher They are so named because of the shape. The above are the lower pitchers (lower meaning they are found on or near ground level) of the slender pitcher plant. Notice the colour... I think the colour differ from the intermediate pitchers to avoid predatory.  Nepenthes gracilis slender pitcher plant Upper pitcher The slender pitcher plant is the most common pitcher plant. We did our "project" on this and turns out that the peristome (the opening) is mostly less than 2cm. We nearly died trying to find bigger ones, kena cheated by TA who said that large ones are easier to find >.<  Nepenthes rafflesiana Raffles’ pitcher plant Intermediate pitcher Just like any other big organisms found in Singapore, these pitchers are named Raffles-something (think rafflesia).  Nepenthes rafflesiana Raffles’ pitcher plant Lower pitcher Just like the narrow-lidded pitchers, the intermediate and lower pitcher have some morphological differences. Notice that there are extra flaps called keels running down the side.  Nepenthes ampullaria narrow lidded pitcher plant These are the least common pitchers found in Singapore. We only saw one patch of it along the whole trail. The cluster together, there are 3 clusters in the picture above. As the clusters go higher up the more dried pitchers were observed in the cluster.  Nepenthes ampullaria narrow lidded pitcher plant I personally think that they look like the jug things that they use to heat up sauces. Notice the narrow lids sticking out from the peristomes. Now that we have seen the different kinds of pitchers, let's look inside!  As you probably know, pitcher plants are carnivorous plant climbers. Though they are decidedly less exciting to watch than venus fly traps when capturing their prey, I'd have to say that they are definitely receiving their fair share of food. We poured out the fluid from the pitchers and here's what we got...  Full of ant parts. The one I poured out had mosquito larvae and some white wriggling worms in it. Apparently mosquitoes lay their eggs in them and for some reason the larvae can survive... and there's the wriggling white worm that were obviously alive, perhaps wriggling in agony.  Here's another one, but don't worry, no pitchers were harmed (I hope). We poured the fluid and the various insect parts back afterward.So now all that's left is the report that I have to write. >.< ~*YN*~ November 06 Alright I give upBeing depressed is really very tiring.
Trying not to be depressed is equally bad. My EQ really isn't that high. I can't seem to find the way out of this state on my own.
Looking on the bright side this would probably be a good thing if I were an artist. Too bad I'm not.
So I'm just gonna adopt indifference.
So I received my first ever purchase from e bay.
 Yay XD
inside:  Should have done this in the first place. But nooo.... I've got to prod karma and get bitten in the ass.
Well, good ideas need time to surface.
Enjoy the music, try not to cry.
~*YN*~ November 01 i finally know whyI think the reason I'm so obsessed with driving is that its the best thing that happened to me in a looong while. Can't help but feel that the world is revolving and everyone is moving along except me. I mean, after the school changing fiasco 2 years ago I thought I could put this feeling behind me. Darn. Gotta start believing that somethings good lays in the future. Worked once, why not a second time? Till then, I guess all I can do is sit tight, "enjoy" the ride and try not to be scared sh*tless. ~*YN*~ October 29 I swearThis only shows how effing stressed I am. Sometimes you just wish that you didnt get out of the house. I flunked my CA and found out something that I didnt want to know. So now I'm having nightmares about shootings, decomposed bodies, scheming militants while having a bloated stomach, tearing up at the drop of a leaf and 8 effing itchy mosquito bites on my legs. Seriously. I think that everyone has a right to know that they are dying. I swear. I never swore before going to university. ~*YN*~ October 22 Tribute to my beloved
R.I.P 22 Oct 2009 I'm never good with goodbyes, But for you I've got to try. Because you never gave me any trouble, Not even a tiny blister. Thanks for your company while I walked some of the loneliest roads, for the comfort you brought me on public transport that I rode, for putting up with all my crap while I drove. But you sure have left your mark on me, the crisscross pattern that I now carry. Be sure that you'd be missed, even as you cease to exist. So farewell, my beloved, there can never be another as dear as you. So start my search again, for the next perfect pair of shoes. ~*YN*~
October 18 if I could turn back timeBut I can't so ... oh well, I think I've gotten so good at reformatting baby that I can do it in 5 hours.
Darn. Still dunno whether the whatever that I so stupidly invited into my comp is gone.
For now there's no sign that its alive... but I can't believe that I was this STUPID.
I mean how can a audio file have .exe??? The how blind can I be to go click ok when I was thinking click cancel????
This is so much worse than shouting "brake! brake!" and have my foot on the accelerator. At least there was a handbrake.
Darn. This was wat caused the problem in the first place.
October 17 Breaking up this girl :(Garbage Breaking Up the Girl lyrics In a modern culture My friend you must be careful They've a million ways to kill you In this dangerous world There's an art to growing old Taking chances Magic happens One mistake's all it takes And your life has come undone Walk away cause you're breaking up the girl It's a drag I know it's hard But you're tearing her apart Walk away cause you're breaking up the girl I am afraid that there's much to be afraid of Here today and gone tomorrow Don't end up in the gutter Just like the one before You're just the same Such a loser You've go to let her go because you're breaking up You're breaking up the girl ~*YN*~ October 10 dragon in a china shopYes. Today was D day.
And guess what, I passed!!!
Yay! they set me loose on the road XD
Amazingly nothing happened in the circuit and even the S course that caused me several nightmares was relatively painless
However I did live up to my JC class nickname.
 If its not obvious enough from the above, my nickname was 慢慢.
Apparently not only do I eat slowly I drive really slowly too.
But glad I passed XD Whee~
~*YN*~ October 07 there goes my rose tinted glasses Saw something truly nerdy today.
 Seriously, they should print it on a shirt. And for some weird reason I'd definitely buy it.
The saw something else on PITNB:
 Oh whee~ Topless Disney princes! I like this one of the Little mermaid prince the best!
Like underwear model >.< Showed it to my bro and he actually knew where they came from. More here. Check it out, they're awesome.
Used to own the tape and story book. With lobster(?) or something singing "Un-dah da see, un-dah da see~~"
Seeing this now brings back old memories. Ah, lost innocence.
~*YN*~
October 06 Some things never last The feeling of well being never last. Well, that's life. Enjoy it while you can, other times... Accept the shit with open and capable arms. Well its 4 days till driving test and I still can't navigate an S course so I'm pretty much dead. Other than that, this week feels more like recess week than recess week did. Currently reading this book online, by "richard castle" of ABC tv series Castle. I think the idea is really cool :D Went grocery shopping with my mom today and bought like 4 bars of choc. Her call, not mine XD If all else fails, hopefully the choc will carry me through >.< ~*YN*~ October 02 fulfilling Ok. This marks a very looong but fulfilling day for me. Started off with drving at 8.30 am and I arrived to a scene of "hit and run" XD Someone hit my instructor's car and he was quite bad abt it. 逞机敲 the other instructor money to fix his other scratched >.< Did ok in the circuit but once I turned out... hmmmm. I think its karma. I nearly knocked some parked car's side mirror and then in the alley behind the coffee shop nearly scratch the side of a lorry. Luckily moving quite slowly. The headed to PP to try to get new sandals but she won't let me in cos she "haven't turn on the lights". seriously. Hope she remembered at the end of the days when she doesn't meet the minimum sales target. Back to sch for microbio lab, which as usually was quite chaotic but we did finish early, hopefully no weird results. Then for the highlight of the day, we got Dr Henry Lee as guest lecturer for forensic science!!!!! This totally made it worth the 803pts I spent bidding. Hell, it even makes the 600 buck I pay for this mod worth it XD Although he didn't touch on anything that we did already know ( I guess the focus was on application and science ethics and the likes), but it was really enjoyable, with the whole LT bursting into laughter approx once every 15 mins. I mean, you gotta love a guy who gives out prizes to guys who correctly give the name of a female undergarment (thong in this case). So sad, didnt get the badge nor his signature >.< But yeah, was within 10m radius of him. Now I sound like a stalker.... ~*YN*~ September 27 the worse driving day ever Ok. I definitely kept my instructor on the edge of his seat today. I have no idea how that happened either. One minute I'm driving, the next I'm making wide left turns, going into other lanes, not braking in time, not stepping on the clutch while breaking, trying to adjust my seat with one foot on the clutch and mounting curbs like no one's business. Omg this is hands down the worst lesson every. Even worse than the total breakdown. AHHH!!! *hands on face, home alone style screaming* ("O.O") Test in 2 weeks!!!! How to pass like that????? ~*YN*~ Mortified. September 24 recess week? What's that?I really dunno why I dig my own graves. I haven't been home for more than 18 hours stretches at a time for the past 2 weeks and recess week was supposed to be a time for rest. Its just one assignment/ report after another. Great just great. On a lighter note, it the end of September!! All the nice american shows are returning for new seasons! Criminal minds! Bones! CSI! ~*YN*~ |
